Lawrence Bishnoi's Brother NIA Bounty:  The National Investigation Agency announced a bounty of Rs 10 lakhs for Anmol Bishnoi, brother of gangster Lawrence Bishnoi, news agency ANI reported on Friday. Anmol is wanted in multiple cases and remains absconding. The NIA reward to arrest Anmol comes two years after the agency charge-sheeted him in two cases in 2022.

Meanwhile, his brother Lawrence Bishnoi, who was in news headlines for his alleged involvement in the murder of Baba Siddique and Canada's Nijjar, remained lodged in Gujarat's Sabarmati jail. The agency also released a picture of Anmol Bishnoi along with the statement of bounty.

According to several reports, Anmol Bishnoi, the gang leader's younger brother, wields a significant influence on the gang members. Suspected to be living either in the UK or Canada, Anmol was instrumental in the firing on Salman Khan's house earlier this year. He was also allegedly involved in the murder of Punjabi singer Sidhu Moosewala, a report said quoting NIA sources.

As the NIA intensifies its efforts to track down Anmol, officials are urging the public to come forward with any information that could aid in his capture. This announcement underscores the agency's commitment to combating organized crime and enhancing public safety.

The move comes almost nine months after the NIA seized several illegal arms and ammunition, along with incriminating documents, digital devices and cash, in a massive multi-state crackdown in three cases relating to conspiracies and activities of the banned Babbar Khalsa International (BKI) and the Lawrence Bishnoi Crime Syndicate, among others.

A total of seven locations were raided in a case registered by NIA against the Organized Crime Syndicate being run on the directions of Lawrence Bishnoi and his associates, including Goldy Brar, under UA(P)A. The Syndicate has spread its mafia-style criminal networks in several states of the country, as well as abroad, in active conspiracy with Harwinder Singh alias Rinda, a 'designated Individual terrorist'.
